In 1040, the Song-Xia War broke out between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, and Han Qi was appointed as the deputy envoy. Han Qi, who has been in a civilian position for a long time, has just arrived at the military camp and his prestige is not high. However, due to a small matter, the military people from top to bottom obeyed him and were willing to fight for him.
That night, Han Qi was buried in his office, and seeing that the candle was about to go out, he asked the guards to light another one. Perhaps the guards felt that Han Qi, a scholar who had never led a soldier, usually respected him on the surface, and was not convinced by this deputy marshal in his heart. Hearing Han Qi's command, the guards slowly and leisurely went to get the candle.
When the guards came to him, due to carelessness, the candle touched Han Qi and actually had a fever on his head. At this moment, the guards' faces were frightened. Although he didn't look up to adults very much, if he wanted to blame him, he couldn't eat and walk around, and he couldn't get dozens of military sticks.
Han Qi, who was seriously reviewing it, seemed as if nothing had happened. He grabbed his hair with his hands, put out the fire, and then motioned for the guards to put the candle on the desk. From the beginning to the end, Han Qi's head did not lift, just like no one else, calm and self-assured.
Although there was no danger, the guards still admired Han Qi's calmness in becoming unfazed, and he was even more ashamed that he had not been scolded. But someone reported to the head of the guard, he was shocked, and quickly replaced the guard, ready to teach a lesson, so as to explain to the adult.
After a while, Han Qi looked up and saw that the guards had changed. He understood that it must be the idea of the chief of the guards, and immediately asked the chief of the guards to call along with the guard.
The head of the guard had not yet had time to punish the guard, and his mind was finished. When they arrived at the tent, Han Qi first asked the guards, "You haven't been beaten." Seeing that the guard nodded, Han Qi was relieved, and turned to the head of the guard and said, "He has learned how to take candles, don't punish him, and don't replace him."
The "candle storm" quickly spread throughout the barracks, and the soldiers were all moved, and they admired Han Qi, who was the commander of the literati, in their hearts. Since then, when carrying out Han Qi's military orders, he has gone all out and has not slackened off.
The amount of Han Qi's instrument is well known. There is another thing that also fully shows that Han Qi is open-minded and open-minded.
In 1042, Han Qi was appointed to guard the daimyo mansion (present-day Handan). Someone presented Han Qi with 2 rare jade cups, and Han Qi loved them very much. At every banquet, Han Qi always had to set up a separate table, spread brocade, and then put the jade cup on it.
At a party, an official persuaded him to drink, but accidentally knocked the jade cup down and fell to the ground and broke it. The official was stunned and overwhelmed, and immediately knelt down and prostrated his head in apology. Han Qi hurriedly lifted up the official, smiled and said to the guests, "All treasures, like people, also have a life number." When the time comes, it will either be lost or destroyed, and manpower cannot be forced." Then he comforted the panicked official: "What is the sin of inadvertently committing?" Small things don't have to be taken to heart. Come, keep drinking.".
No matter how precious the jade cup is, it is also an external thing. Moreover, it has been broken, and no matter how the parties are punished, the jade cup cannot be restored. If you deplore the treasure and punish the perpetrator heavily, you will only establish an enemy for yourself, and the people who will attend the meeting will be very embarrassed and will disperse unhappily. Han Qi's clever reaction won a full applause, and the perpetrators were even more grateful, and then obeyed Han Qi's orders.
Han Qi's career was smooth, going through the three dynasties of Renzong, Yingzong, and Shenzong, and the emperors of each dynasty praised him and used him heavily. Even after his death, the later Emperor Huizong of Song posthumously honored him as the King of Wei County. The Song generation's reliance on Han Qi can be seen.
Although Han Qi's success is inseparable from his personal ability, it also has a lot to do with his generous and open-mindedness. Wu Liang of the Yuan Dynasty spoke highly of Han Qi: when encountering changes, he was not worried, he was not proud when he was in a high position, he always treated others with an equal heart, and made friends with a friendly heart, so he rarely had enemies in his life and was far away from right and wrong.
The official arena is sinister, but Han Qi has always been invincible. The mystery of this, Han Qi himself has revealed: the things in the world, not completely satisfactory, so we must treat people and things with a peaceful attitude; if you can't do it, people will inevitably be anxious and uneasy, and they will not be able to live a day.
Although reason has gone all over the world, reason must also spare people. To leave a way out for others is to leave a way for yourself to live.
